Shaping the Future: The Role of Quantity Surveyors in Advancing Sustainable Construction Practice

What you will learn :

• The role of QS in developing sustainable construction in Indonesia from an economic perspective – Quantity Surveyors play a crucial role in ensuring the financial feasibility of sustainable construction by optimizing costs, analyzing long-term savings, and promoting investment in eco-friendly building solutions.

• Technologies that QS can use in supporting sustainable construction in Indonesia – Advanced digital tools like Building Information Modeling (BIM), cost estimation software, and lifecycle assessment systems help Quantity Surveyors enhance efficiency, accuracy, and sustainability in construction projects.

• Overcoming the problem of environmentally friendly materials in Indonesia – Quantity Surveyors can drive the adoption of eco-friendly materials by assessing cost-effectiveness, identifying local sustainable alternatives, and advocating for long-term operational savings in green construction.

Latar belakang (logic) kenapa program ini Penting untuk diikuti?

1. Sustainability as a Development Priority – Sustainable construction has become a key priority in Indonesia’s development policies. However, the implementation of sustainability principles in the country’s construction industry still faces various challenges.

2. Lack of Awareness of Sustainability Factors – Many Quantity Surveyors have yet to fully understand the importance of integrating sustainability factors such as energy efficiency, the use of eco-friendly materials, and waste management into cost estimation and project management.

3. Misconceptions About Sustainable Construction – The common perception that sustainable construction is more expensive than conventional methods often hinders the adoption of eco-friendly solutions. The role of Quantity Surveyors in changing this perspective is crucial, as they can assess long-term costs, optimize material usage, and account for potential operational savings after project completion.
